ABSTRACT
The field experiments were conducted during Kar and Pishanum seasons at weltand of Rice Research Station, Ambasamudiram by using ASD 18 rice as test crop.The design adopted includes three levels of lime as factor F1 and three levels of Potassium as factor F2.The factor number F1 consists of treatmens L0 no lime, L2 is current lime application and L3 is residual lime treatment. Factor number two-F2 consists of three treatments of K0-0% potash ,K1-50% potash and K2-100% potash.The results revealed that the electrical conductivity value of the soils of residual crop tested in pishanum season was found to be lower than that of Kar season, involving the application of lime in combination with various levels of potassium.The same was was lower than the treatment effects in Kar and Pishanum.There was progressive decrease in EC value with increase in stages of crop growth,both the seasons due to the effect of burnt lime.The soil reaction upgradation on favourable side was also studied in relevance to the same set of treatment combinations, the results further revealed the fact that highest soil reaction value was recorded in the treatment that received 3.78 t per hectare of burnt lime applied at the current season in combination with K as K2O Kg/ha at 100% Levels.This level may be at its maximum buffering capacity towards soil reclamationThe applied potassium also increased the exchangeable potassium content of soil under both limed and unlimed conditions.
